RNF113A

Chr XX-linked

ring finger protein 113A

Also known as: Cwc24, RNF113, TTD5, ZNF183

RNF113A encodes an E3 ubiquitin ligase that is required for pre-mRNA splicing as a component of the spliceosome and plays a role in DNA repair through synthesis of polyubiquitin chains. Mutations cause X-linked trichothiodystrophy 5, nonphotosensitive, which affects hair and skin development. The gene is highly constrained against loss-of-function variants (pLI = 0.89, LOEUF = 0.42), indicating intolerance to protein-truncating mutations.
